How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it.

Came for the first time and it was delish! The chicken tenders were breaded just right, the fries were tasty and the Texas toast was awesome. Hubby got the 1/4 Rotisserie and was pleasantly surprised at the juiciness and flavorful seasoning. The Mac and cheese was to die for! Don’t sleep on the banana pudding! Our server, Azzie, was attentive and knowledgeable of the menu! Dog friendly patio and happy hour beers made it very affordable! Highly recommend!!!
